Here’s One Of Link’s Alternate Costumes In Super Smash Bros.

As always, the fighters in Super Smash Bros. will have alternate costumes, and last night, director Masahiro Sakurai revealed one for Link via Miiverse.

The costume above is based on Link’s plain clothes in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. “The art style looks a little different, but the actual clothing model is still his usual tunic,” Sakurai wrote on Miiverse.

I’m so happy! Skyward Sword Link is one of my favorites so I was a bit bummed that he wasn’t going to be the Link they went for in this game. Wait does this means that Zelda is going to get an alternate SS costume as well? I hope so

…reminds me that I need to get skyward sword (but I suck at the wii controls >.<)

CrossZX

Shouldn’t it be “One” in the title?

Ooh Bee

SS Zelda next would be great.

I guess this means we might not get any meaningful costumes like those found in project M, just slight texture edits, kinda lame, oh well.

Little Mac, Villager and Wii Fit Trainer have wireless model, both genders + different hair styles and both genders respectively.

Heck, even 1 is good, beats palette swaps anyday.
Some I’d like to see: Dry Bowser for Bowser, Mr. L for Luigi, Protoman for Megaman.

Takane Shijou

Feels pretty lazy honestly.

Learii

is an elf costume

I wonder if we’re ever going to see a Lucina alternate for Marth, complete with Laura Bailey’s voice.

*MELT*

Brian Carty

hm, kinda wish he wasn’t wearing the hat for this costume.

A Lazy POS is what this costume is. Villager gets several male and female variants, Miis get a large number of unlockable costume pieces you get to choose from, Mac gets wire frame mac, and WFT gets the male variant. But for some odd reason Link of all people gets a bastardization of one his casual attires.

I’d honestly prefer more plain colour swaps than this.

I’m a big fan of alternate colors and costume changes, and I think this one looks pretty nice overall. The color is based on his alternate outfit though, and given a choice, I’d rather have Link fight in his alternate outfit. I’ll admit I’m a little disappointed that after all the other jumps and whatnot that this newest game has made, that they won’t go any farther with their alternate looks for the game. Seems or feels like a ‘running-low-on-budget thing. Even so, with everything else we’ve gotten, I feel bad for complaining.

It’s to be expected.

Some characters will get complete alt costumes (Mac, WF Trainer) while others still get palette swaps based on alt costumes.

And it’s still 2+ months till release, plenty of time to get shown some full costumes for Link and others.

I wonder if they will ever put Imp midna riding wolf link as a playable character, in the distant future
